Now I'm even more baffled. I emailed Bosch again today. They quote 2.5uH (must be mixing units up) and 6A current.

They replied (quoted below) suggesting dwell times of 2.6ms at 12v.

Also, the Bosch catalogue at http://apps.bosch.com.au/motorsport/downloads/ignitioncoils.pdf quotes primary resistance of ...

Can we say with certainty that no one has ...

Sorry, nuffie here. How is inductance measured? Is this possible for a punter with a multimeter? CRO? Something else? I haven't seen many coil catalogues with this value listed.
